Chromaludes actually do fit the album and they actually elevate it. Without them it would sound messy, like the sonical difference between Fun Tonight and 911 is too notorious, so I think they are neccesary and they enhance the listening experience 

That could have been aided by simply reorganizing the tracklist though

Some of ARTPOP's track choices were extremely poor. It should have been...

Jewels N' Drugs -> Brooklyn Nights

MANiCURE -> Partynauseous

Mary Jane Holland -> Nothin' On But The Radio

Fashion! -> Princess Die

Exactly. They definitely made the album feel more like an album, but if time was being sacrificed for these, then she lost about two and a half minutes on instrumental alone. 

 

I don't even listen to the Chromaludes. I just go right to the song. The time she could've used to make another short song..

That doesnt make sense.

If they helped with the sonic difference, we would have a damn interlude between every single song.

Good thread. Here goes!

1. Make music as avant-garde and as experimental as her image.

2. Leave pop and dance and focus on her artistry within the experimental genre.

3. Give the activism message in her music a break. Not every song or album have to be about kindness, acceptance and love. There are more things to sing about.

4. Return to long form music videos and stunning visuals and collaborate with unique designers and not rely on Haus’s cheap recreation of her iconic past looks.

5. No need to cry when making a statement. One can still get a message across without having to cry because at this point, it feels more like PR and less like genuine emotion.

6. Don’t take very long between eras. People move on easily and Gaga isn’t like Adele where a blurred selfie can break the internet for 48 hours.

7. Give tours and album photoshoots as much budget as those for magazines like PAPER. Her tours are mediocre compared to her epic award show performances. 

8. I hope she focuses on music and art and giving them a meaning that is seen within the work itself, better lyrics and visuals..etc because I’ve notice that while most of her songs are great, her lyrics is mediocre and so many of her songs feel like she gives them meaning retroactively and most of the time it feels too exaggerated compared to what the actual work implies.

Not a fan of the drops on Chromatica. I like old school choruses, not just an instrumental playing. 

And for choreographies, I don’t know how to put it into words but since the Joanne era, they look like she’s just pulling random moves.

I would love her to feel less pressured to cater to her fans (as in the old school fans who want fame/monsterga back).

I would love her to be more artistically/creatively free. I know she loves her fan base and wants to show gratitude but I feel it is limiting her in ways.

Making another short song goes against the point I'm making though. Those three minutes could have been added to songs like "Alice," "911," "Sour Candy," and other songs that didn't even hit the three minute mark, or the songs that didn't even get a proper bridge.

I've always wondered how Gaga sees her skills as a pianist. My criticism would be that most of her live piano performances are quite simplistic, and I always wonder if it's a consious choice, or a lack of practice. From my perspective it's an essential skill that has always really set her apart from other artists, and I hope that she hones it and expands upon it in the future. I think she can do really interesting things with it that she hasn't explored yet.

She should stop caring about the charts and start doing more experimental things

I know what you meant.

Sadly, thats what she would've done though.

Ugh this album is such a mess to try and decipher everything lol

She seemed more skilled at the piano early in her careeer compared to now tbh... or is it just me?
